Getting an account

When Wallet is initialized with mnemonic, it holds multiple Accounts according to BIP44.
Each Account holds the keys needed to make a payments from it.

Wallet's getAccount method used to access an account:

JavaScript

const client = new Dash.Client({
  wallet: {
    mnemonic: "maximum blast eight orchard waste wood gospel siren parent deer athlete impact",
  },
});

const account = await client.wallet.getAccount()
// Do something with account

As optional parameter, an integer representing the account index can be passed as parameter. By default, index account on call is 0.

client.wallet.getAccount({ index: 1 })

Awaiting for the getAccount() promise is necessary to ensure the wallet is synced-up with the network and make sure that the UTXO set is ready to be used for payment/signing.
